Far better to find the tweeter that best matches the midrange unit you choose, although experimentation could be time consuming especially if you have to keep creating new crossovers.In your shoes I'd find a manufactured speaker I like and source the tweeter it uses, and in fact if I was making my own speaker I'd be inclined to source both drivers from a speaker I enjoy listening to (probably high-end and out of my price range) and design my own cabinet.
Most of the cost involved with high-end speakers is in the cabinet and general R&D; the drivers are usually very affordable with the benefit that the crossover has already been designed to match the drivers for that particular sized cabinet.
Make your own cabinet with a similar volume and you're almost guaranteed a successful project.
I've done this myself and had excellent results, as most manufactured cabinets aren't as inert as they should be with most money going on the aesthetics.
